Theresearch project outcomes of the internship, as well as the external evaluation results, haveshown that the summer research internship program delivered its objectives to have studentinterns gain valuable engineering research experience, strengthened their confidence in problemsolving, and reinforced their interest in pursuing an engineering degree. Furthermore, theprogram improved the students’ technical skillset, team collaboration, time management, andcommunication skills. The first-year development and implementation of the program, as well asits outcomes and lessons learned

), an HSI in the State University of New York (SUNY) system. In year one, Cohort Apiloted the PD modules in Tier 1 which featured reflective exercises and small culturallyresponsive activities to try with their STEM students. In year two, Cohort A piloted the PDmodules in Tier 2 and peer-mentored Cohort B as they piloted optimizations introduced to Tier 1from Cohort A feedback. Three types of optimizations came from faculty feedback.  The firstconsidered feedback regarding delivery and/or nature of the content that influenced a subsequentmodule. The second involved making changes to a particular module before it was delivered toanother faculty cohort.  The third takes into account what worked and what didn’t to decidewhich content to bring into

Program. Since 2012, the Mentor-Connect initiative has been funded by theNSF ATE Program to help two-year college technician educators and related STEM facultydevelop the grant-writing skills needed to meet NSF expectations and benefit from ATE funding.Over the past decade, 80% of Mentor-Connect participants have successfully submittedproposals. To date, the average funding rate for these proposals is 71%.This paper describes how the Mentor-Connect intervention works and for whom, what outcomeshave resulted for participants who become grantees, and how two-year colleges and technicianeducators can benefit.Funding Program HistoryThe Advanced Technological Education (ATE) funding program at the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) was created in 1992

common intervals within each chord type holdregardless of musical key.This commonality of intervals led the music student to conceive of a spreadsheet-baseddatabase with lookup functions to identify correct notes in each chord driven by the musicalkey. With little experience with databases and spreadsheet functions, the music studentreached out to the engineering students for help.ProblemsAs expected, the community college music theory student spends a lot of time studying,writing notes, listening to chords, and memorizing note intervals within chords. Many musictheory students do so. The community college’s target homework for a 3-credit course suchas music theory, is 6 to 9 hours of homework per week. For this study, one music studentwith
